Ricin found in dojo of man charged with attempting to frame Elvis impersonator

Traces of ricin were found in the martial arts studio of a US man charged in a bizarre plot to send poisoned letters to President Barack Obama and other public officials, the FBI said Tuesday.

The letters were intercepted as the nation was still reeling from the Boston Marathon bombings, but the nerve-wracking plot took a strange turn last week when it turned out that the motivation was likely revenge, not terrorism.

James Everett Dutschke, 41, is accused of trying to frame a fellow Mississippi man with whom he’d had what the FBI described as a “contentious relationship.” At first, the alleged plan seemed to have worked.

They also found records that Dutschke ordered 100 red castor beans off eBay in November and December.

1. And Dutschke is a Wayne Newton impersonator.

Seems strange that both the first suspect and now the real criminal are both impersonators.

5. Elvis (even Fat Elvis) beats Wayne Newton every time, right?

Hopefully an FBI task force is looking into other Wayne Newton Impersonators. Maybe this is a potential problem?
